Carly stumbled upon a makeup bag in her home, one she didn\u2019t recognize. Puzzled and concerned, she asked her husband about it. He quickly came up with a story, saying it was his mother\u2019s. But Carly had her doubts, so she decided to set up a hidden camera in their bedroom.Carly tiptoed around her bedroom, soaking in the quiet. She looked at her baby boy, sleeping so peacefully, and felt a bit better despite the troubles in her married life. Things weren\u2019t great between her and Josh. Their love wasn\u2019t what it used to be, but her son made everything seem fine.While cleaning up, Carly found a makeup bag under the bed, which was pretty but unfamiliar. Maybe her husband was trying to surprise her? But the used makeup inside told her something was wrong.\n
Carly decided she needed to talk to Josh. \u201cJosh, could you come here?\u201d she asked as he walked into the kitchen. She showed him the makeup bag. \u201cIs there something you need to tell me?\u201dJosh looked confused. \u201cIs that new? Did you buy it?\u201d he asked, looking at the bag.\u201dIt\u2019s not mine, Josh. Where did it come from?\u201d Carly watched his face, hoping for some truth.Josh seemed genuinely puzzled. \u201cI\u2019ve never seen it before. Whose is it?\u201dCarly took a deep, shaky breath, knowing her next words could change everything. \u201cJosh, are you cheating on me?\u201d she asked.\u201dWhat? You-you\u2019re insane, Carly! It\u2019s probably Mom\u2019s. She was here the other day. Must\u2019ve forgotten it.\u201dCarly\u2019s heart sank. \u201cJosh, I know what your Mom\u2019s makeup looks like. This isn\u2019t hers.\u201d\u201cBut it has to be,\u201d Josh insisted. He quickly grabbed the makeup bag as if removing it from sight might end the conversation. \u201cI\u2019ll just give it back to her the next time we see her,\u201d he added before hastily leaving the kitchen.\n
Carly was left alone, feeling confused and sad. She decided to find out the truth herself. She went up to the attic and found an old camera they used to love.With the camera in hand, Carly went to their bedroom and set it up, hiding it behind a wedding photo. Her hands were shaking as she did that. \u201cI need to know the truth,\u201d she whispered to herself.Before leaving the room, Carly looked at their wedding picture. Were we ever truly happy? Then, she texted Josh: Going out to shop. Will be back late.The shopping was a blur, Carly\u2019s mind elsewhere. As evening approached, she felt a knot of anxiety; it was almost time to return home and face whatever the camera had captured.\n
Back home, after settling her son, Carly\u2019s heart raced as she retrieved the camera from the bedroom. The laptop before her, she inserted the memory card and fast-forwarded through the footage until Josh and a young girl appeared.The girl casually threw a jacket over their wedding photo, obscuring the camera. Carly\u2019s mind raced. \u201cHow could he?\u201d she muttered, the screen now blank, her fears confirmed by the deliberate act of covering the lens.Right then, the front door clicked open. Josh was home. Carly closed the laptop, her heart pounding. \u201cWe need to talk,\u201d she said as Josh entered the room.\u201dAbout what?\u201d\u201dAbout this,\u201d Carly said, re-opening the laptop and pressing the spacebar to play the video. Josh\u2019s face fell, then he got defensive. \u201cYou spied on me?\u201d\u201dIs that your concern? Who is the girl in the video?\u201d Carly demanded.\u201dIt\u2019s Martha, my student,\u201d Josh tried to explain.\n
\u201dIn our bedroom?\u201dJosh shrugged off her concerns. \u201cI don\u2019t see the issue.\u201d\u201dYou were with a young girl in our bedroom! Are you cheating on me?\u201d Carly asked directly.\u201dWould I tell you her name if I were?!\u201d Josh retorted.\u201dTell me the truth, Josh! Are you?\u201d Carly pressed.\u201dEven if I were, what would you do?\u201d Josh\u2019s cold response left Carly stunned.\u201dI would leave you, file for divorce,\u201d Carly declared.\u201dAnd end up with a child in your arms, without a penny? Remember, the prenuptial agreement leaves you with almost nothing!\u201d\u201dI\u2019ll get everything in the case of cheating!\u201d Carly retorted.\u201dBut here\u2019s the thing, Carly. There\u2019s no cheating. All you have is a video of Martha entering our bedroom. That\u2019s not enough,\u201d Josh smirked.\n
\u201dYOU are the one cheating, Josh! And our deal clearly says you\u2019d lose everything,\u201d Carly shouted, her frustration boiling over.Josh leaned in, his voice low and dangerous. \u201cGood luck proving that. Be careful, Carly, or you\u2019ll end up regretting it.\u201d He stormed off, leaving Carly in a whirlwind of emotions.The next day, Carly, needing solid proof, found Martha on campus. \u201cMartha?\u201d she called, catching up to her.\u201dWe need to talk,\u201d Carly said firmly, blocking her path.\u201dI\u2019ve got nothing to say to you,\u201d Martha snapped, trying to brush past her.\u201dI\u2019m Josh\u2019s wife. I know about you two,\u201d Carly revealed, hoping to sway her.Martha hesitated. \u201cYou\u2026 You\u2019ve got it all wrong.\u201dI need your help. Just tell me everything, and I\u2019ll record it,\u201d Carly pleaded, showing her a voice recorder.Martha backed away. \u201cI can\u2019t do that to Josh.\u201dCarly\u2019s heart sank, but she pushed on. \u201cIt\u2019s better for us both if I just leave. Please, help me!\u201d\u201dNo,\u201d said Martha. \u201cI can\u2019t betray him. He\u2019s leaving you for me!\u201dSo he\u2019s actually leaving me for a young girl. \u201cHe\u2019s lying to you, Martha. It\u2019s all lies!\u201d she tried explaining.\n
\u201dNo, we\u2019re in love! Stay away from me!\u201d Martha stormed off, leaving Carly alone. She had barely recovered from what had just happened when Josh approached her, smirking.\u201dWhat are you up to, Carly?\u201d he asked, smiling. \u201cTrying to play detective, huh?\u201d\u201dI\u2019m onto you, I\u2019m gonna catch you red-handed!\u201d she snapped, her eyes red with fury.Josh laughed mockingly. \u201cReally? You\u2019ll end up losing it all, even our son.\u201dIgnoring his scare tactics, Carly took her son to her mom\u2019s for safety, then set out to unmask Josh. She got in touch with a call girl named Chloe, planning to catch Josh red-handed.In a hotel room, Carly laid out her scheme to Chloe. \u201cAct like you\u2019re a student, slip something into Josh\u2019s drink, and snap some fake photos,\u201d Carly explained, her voice tinged with desperation.Chloe paused.\n
\u201cThis is a bit out\u2026 there. You know, I mean, we don\u2019t usually do such stuff. But if you pay me double, I\u2019m in.\u201dCarly agreed.A few hours later, Carly\u2019s nerves were on the edge until Chloe came back, handing over an envelope, \u201cAll done,\u201d she said. The photos inside showed Josh caught in the act. Carly felt a mix of relief and victory as she paid Chloe.After counting the cash, Chloe noticed a champagne bottle on a table. \u201cIs this champagne free?\u201d she asked.\u201dYeah, it\u2019s from the hotel. They know Josh and me. It\u2019s on the house,\u201d Carly explained.Chloe popped the champagne. \u201cLet\u2019s have a drink then,\u201d she proposed, and Carly agreed, excited that her plan was successful. They clinked their glasses, \u201cHere\u2019s to fresh starts,\u201d finding a moment of unexpected connection.For the first time in a while, Carly felt like she really enjoyed herself. The evening was filled with lots of laughs and stories, making her forget her worries for a while. Then, came morning.\n
Chloe was gone, and Carly, with a bad headache, tried to piece together what had happened. She grabbed her stuff and left the hotel, closing the door on that unexpected night.Back home, she walked into the kitchen and found Josh.\u201dWhere have you been?\u201d he asked stiffly.\u201dThat\u2019s none of your business,\u201d Carly said, fed up with him acting like he owned her.\u201dBut you\u2019re my wife, so it kinda is my business,\u201d Josh said, sounding like he was in charge.\u201dNot for much longer,\u201d Carly shot back as she looked for a pill for her headache.\u201dNot for long? What\u2019s that supposed to mean?\u201d Josh asked, trying to laugh it off but clearly worried.\u201dI\u2019m getting a divorce, Josh,\u201d Carly said, her voice clear and strong.Josh, thinking he she\u2019d never be able to prove his infidelity, smirked, \u201cYou know I\u2019ll get everything, right?\u201d\u201dNot this time,\u201d Carly said, hinting she had something up her sleeve.Trying to one-up her, Josh showed pictures that he thought proved Carly cheated with Chloe.\n
\u201cGuess your friend wasn\u2019t so loyal.\u201dBut Carly was ready. She laid out her own photos of Josh with Chloe. \u201cWhat do you say to this?\u201dJosh was rattled. \u201cYou won\u2019t prove anything! I\u2019ll make sure of it!\u201d\u201dWell, we\u2019ll see that!\u201d she said confidently, and Josh stormed off.Left alone yet again, Carly spotted Josh\u2019s phone and had an idea. She sent the incriminating photos to Martha, seeking her help in exposing his deceit. He\u2019s cheating on both of us. Do you believe me now? She wrote.I won\u2019t let you win, Josh, Carly thought and smiled as Martha replied: \u201cI\u2019ll help you.\u201dMonths later, in court, Martha\u2019s testimony about her affair with Josh played a crucial role. It proved Josh had been cheating on Carly for over a year now. The judge, considering the evidence and witness testimony Carly provided, ruled in her favor, awarding her all property and assets.\n
A wave of relief washed over Carly, so profound it almost felt like a physical force. The battle she had fought, fraught with uncertainty and pain, had not been in vain.The judge also stated that her son would remain with her while Josh was granted visitation rights. Although the thought of Josh still being a part of their lives was complicated, Carly knew she could navigate this new reality with the strength she had found in herself through this ordeal.Her primary concern had always been her son\u2019s well-being, and now she could provide him with a stable, loving environment, free from the turmoil that had shadowed their lives.As the judge concluded the proceedings, Carly remained seated for a moment, absorbing the magnitude of the verdict. She had won not just the legal battle but a personal victory against the despair and manipulation that had threatened to consume her.Tell us what you think about this story, and share it with your friends.
